Charice surely has paid her dues. After starting her music career by joining a contest held by one of the 
Pyramid sounds, without a doubt, better than Charice’s first single Note To God. Charice’s mad vocals are the song’s biggest asset. Iyaz does not overpower Charice’s vocals in the track as well. As an additional note, Iyaz is not an annoying presence in this one. Iyaz’ presence can be compared to how Flo Rida contributed to Alexandra Burke song Bad Boys – something helpful for the betterment of the track.
Pyramid is definitely well-structured. The beat present in the track surely induces lots of positive vibes into the song. The chorus is arguably great. The lines are something that one could repeat from time and time again. If there are any gripes about the song that this writer could have, it would be the abuse on the Auto-Tune technology. Sure, Charice’s vocals may be mad for most of the song but she sounds like JoJo at times. As my colleague Aid mentioned, Iyaz sounds ‘fixed’ in the track. Still, I would like to say that Pyramid is very likable and very infectious despite the vocal manipulation done on the track.
Ultimately, Pyramid somehow managed to temporarily stop the dislike that I have for Charice. She totally nailed it with the track. Pyramid is something catchy and does not sound too cheesy. The track does not go over-the-top and simply hit the notes very finely. Pyramid surely tells why people have fallen in love with the Filipina. I am definitely proud of the things that she has accomplished, that is for sure.
